Summary

90	12 Fox Beer Company Negro Sombrero Vienna-Style Lager \| 5.3% ABV \| 23 IBU Offered By: WESTEXANS

Club/Brewer Notes:
A copper color lager with a soft, elegant maltiness that dries out in the finish. It has a light flavor and an aroma of toast.

88	MKE MVP Hazy IPA \| 5.5% ABV \| 60 IBU Offered By: CHEETO

Club/Brewer Notes:
Five different hops are used to create a well-balanced IPA which focuses on the hipster's hops, Citra and Mosaic. The late addition of these hops gives the IPA a juicy citrus aroma while the light body leaves a crisp dry taste

86	Potosi Snake Hollow American-Style India Pale Ale (IPA) \| 6.5% ABV \| 65 IBU Offered By: CHEETO

Club/Brewer Notes:
Once teeming with rattlesnakes, the Potosi valley was known as Snake Hollow. The name lives on in our Midwest IPA. Medium bodied and generously dry-hopped, this beer boasts a bold citrus hop character, notes of grapefruit and a clean bitter finish

88	El Segundo Brewing Company Steve Austin Broken Skull IPA American-Style India Pale Ale (IPA) \| 6.7% ABV \| Unknown IBU Offered By: FATBOY

Club/Brewer Notes:
A bad-ass 6.7% IPA designed by Steve Austin and ESBC for the working man & woman. It features Citra, Cascade, and Chinook hops to deliver big flavor with an easy finish. Now stop reading and start enjoying this awesome beer! Cheers! - Steve

89	Saint Arnold Brewing Company Juicy IPA American-Style India Pale Ale (IPA) \| 7.1% ABV \| 44 IBU Offered By: SANTA

Club/Brewer Notes:
An IPA bursting with hop flavor and aroma. It has a soft bitterness followed by a refreshing juicy sweetness that doesn’t end cloying. Add the tropical aroma, and it’s a beer you’ll keep coming back to.

90	AleSmith Brewing Company Anvil for Hope American-Style India Pale Ale (IPA) \| 7.5% ABV \| Unknown IBU Offered By: SANTA

90	12 Fox Beer Company Galaxy Fox SMASH IPA \| 7.8% ABV \| 6.4 IBU Offered By: WESTEXANS

Club/Brewer Notes:
In this single hop IPA, we used galaxy hops to give it a citrus, peach, and passion fruit flavoring and aroma. A medium bodied, soft aggressive bitter beer, that contains a light sweet malt flavor from the use of pale malt. The hops dominate the flavor and aroma profile.

91	Abnormal Beer Company Distance Learning Double Hazy India Pale Ale \| 8.7% ABV \| 15 IBU Offered By: WESTEXANS

Club/Brewer Notes:
Summer is approaching and we want to help you enjoy it! School is almost out and all this new distance learning will soon be over, but what will you do without summer-break beach parties? The solution is in this glorious liquid! This juicy double IPA packs a punch of tropical fruits, citrus, and coconut. Unlike our fruited offerings, this beer gets all that goodness from just hops. Enjoy in your backyard with or without friends, but remember to keep safe if the homies do come to hang. Cheers!

93	Deschutes Brewery Black Butte XXXII American-Style Imperial Porter \| 13.4% ABV \| Unknown IBU Offered By: PHATMEAT

Club/Brewer Notes:
In celebration of our 32nd anniversary, this year’s imperial porter was aged in Colombian rum barrels, infused with cold brew coffee, and spiced with nutmeg, vanilla bean, and sweet orange peel.
